*Turn off all rows which you are not using via the "Show" selector"
*Avoid opening all properties. Instead open individual properties or create property groups
== Further Customisation using CSS ==
If you are comfortable working with CSS you can use custom CSS to customise the control panel further. Use Firebug or a similar tool to detect the classes you want to change.
Example: Give the inventory cell a different color if the inventory is 0.
.caltable .inv0{
background-color: #d43f3a;
}
.inv0 .dashgrid_inventory {
color: #fff;
}
.inv0 .lightgrey {
color: #fff;
}
